I reckon he will go to Cleveland and get back with Norv. I wouldn't be surprised to see him go for a 2014 3rd rounder. With the amount of teams vying for him I have no doubt we get a pick for him and we don't need any more picks this year.

It also makes sense to go to Cleveland as they have a very good running game and a defence that is going to be extremely good, which according to most people on these forums is the ONLY way he could possibly succeed.

And for those people that say that his contract is too big.. $16m for 2 years for a starting QB that has won in the playoffs and with his recent record is robbery. It would probably be better for a team to trade for him so that he gets that contract as he probably gets more (or at least a longer deal) if he went the FA route.

It's an exaggeration to say they would go winless for a whole season but look at the cast that Alex Smith has had around him for him to FINALLY have success after 6 years in the league as being a complete bust.

It took an ELITE Oline and an ELITE defense. Not to mention the running game and not too shabby receivers

And despite all that cast, they basically just asked Alex Smith to Trent Dilfer his way through ball games.

The idea that Alex Smith is a better player than Vick is based off of the combination of vitriole for Vick and overestimating the level of effectiveness that any QB could have had in the Eagles situation last year

I know you're a Browns fan but you should have a higher standard for the QB of your team then Alex Smith.

hes not even playing for your team. hes about to leave and youre still hating on him _________________***WE RUN THE WEST!***

you can say that. but if you watched the game and looked at the numbers there is a huge difference in play_________________***WE RUN THE WEST!***

Michael Vick is a turnover machine. Even Alex is a better QB than him._________________

The Eagles had one of the worst offensive lines in the league this year and the 49ers have one of the best

The Eagles had one of the worst defenses in the league this year, the 49ers had one of the best

Anyone who actually WATCHES the games was advocating Kaepernick over Alex Smith a while back because they said AT WORSE he would be the same level of effectiveness of Alex Smith, the guy who they asked just not to lose games

Michael Vick is a turnover machine. Even Alex is a better QB than him.

LOL the revisionist history on Alex Smith is hilarious

Alex Smith the guy who had something absurd like 1 TD and 12 ints his first year in the league and continued to have more turnovers than TDs just about every year of his career until Harbaugh came along

But nooo, let's forget about that. Let's pretend the rate of turning the ball over this year for Vick is something that he's been doing as often as Alex Smith for his career.

So Harbaugh got to the 49ers in 2008? Because 2007 was the last time Alex had more turnovers than TD's and that was with a seperated throwing shoulder. Good job showing how little you actually know about Alex Smith though._________________

Hence the phrase just about. I recalled it wasn't every. But the fact that
you're pumping your chest about Alex Smith's best ever season without Harbaugh being one where he accounted for 18 total TDs go ahead. (And even with Harbaugh only 19)

And even excluding 2005 his first year, From 2006-2010 Alex Smith accounted for 52 total touchdowns and 55 total turnovers

More turnovers than TDs and NEVER more than 18 total touchdowns in a season. Also NEVER accounting for more wins than losses in a season before 2011. His career record I remember was a dreadful 19-31.

THere is a REASON why he was considered a bust and the revisionist history on his shortcomings is some of the worst revisionist history I've ever seen

BTW, Michael VIck accounted for more TDs than Alex Smith over that span of 2006-2010 despite the fact that Vick missed THREE SEASONS as a starter because of jail time

So wait... You're saying Alex posted his career best in TD's... without Jim Harbaugh? But... But... I thought Alex Smith was nothing before the almighty Jim Harbaugh.

You tell me I'm trying to revise history and yet you're the one saying Alex Smith had more turnovers than TDs every year he was in the league before Harbs got there, which is only true for 2 years in his career (one being his rookie year, the other his 3rd year where he played with a seperated throwing shoulder for 7 games). Since 2009 (two years with Harbs, two years without), Alex has 62 TDs to just 32 INTs. There's no revision there. Just history._________________

His career best was the "whopping" 19 TDs he had last year WITH Jim. And he did so with a significantly better TD/TO ratio

You have evaded the entire point which is that his all-time best production with or without Harbaugh is not even 20 TDs in a season

And it's a reason why Vick who missed THREE SEASONS as a starter has more TDs than Alex Smith over the span of 2006-10

But you seemed to have ignored that with just about every other point, which I understand because evasive tactics like that are the only way to justify the absurdity of saying Alex Smith has proven anything compared to Vick without that loaded cast and elite coaching staff

This is a nitpicking evasion. First of all, do you realize lost fumbles count as turnovers? And secondly, even though Alex Smith had 2 years without more turnovers than TDs, the overall SPAN of time before Harbaugh even taking away Alex Smith's worse year, he had more turnovers than TDs

So congratulations that he had 14 Tds to 12 one year to avoid having more than TDs

So continue to use that red herring to justify his woeful play since it was only 3 of the 5 seasons he played in instead of 4 of the 5 before 2011
